Safe-Haven Appeal Drives Gold Over $2,400 Demand for safe-haven assets has propelled gold to an unprecedented rally, reaching all-time highs. On Friday, spot gold increased by 0.9% to $2,395.66 per ounce and even touched a record peak of $2,400.35, culminating in a nearly 3% rise for the week. U.S. gold futures also saw a significant jump, rising 1.8% to $2,414.30. This surge in gold prices is driven by escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and economic uncertainties surrounding China. Ricardo Evangelista, a senior analyst at ActivTrades, notes that gold prices may continue to climb due to increased central bank purchases and a heightened investor demand for safe-haven assets amid growing geopolitical conflicts. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Gold Inches Higher with Eyes on Major U.S. Economic Reports READ MORE Steps Toward De-Dollarization in Zimbabwe READ MORE SILVER ALERT: Could This Mexican Law Change Cause a Supply Crunch?
